Holland, 23, played 39 games for the Leafs last season, scoring five goals and adding five assists. He had 16 penalty minutes.

The 6-foot-2 centre is a candidate for the fourth line next season after bouncing back and forth between the Leafs and the Marlies.

On his Twitter account, the Caledon, Ont., native wrote: “Super excited to sign a new deal with my boyhood team!”

Toronto acquired Holland on Nov. 16, 2013 from the Anaheim Ducks along with Brad Staubitz in exchange for Jesse Blacker, Toronto’s second round pick and Anaheim’s seventh round pick in the 2014 Entry Draft.

Holland was originally Anaheim’s first round pick (15th overall), in the 2009 Entry Draft.
